In Denver, Colorado, on April 1, 1950, George T. Sanders and his wife Pauline opened a small enterprise to furnish sheet metal and other supplies to heating contractors. They established their operations at 1111 Stout Street in the heart of Denver. In 1952, the company expanded beyond its initial location and moved to 7821 West Colfax Avenue in Lakewood.

In 1962, the company made another move to new facilities at 1365 Harlan Street. Until that point, the focus had been primarily on heating and sheet metal. The decision to enter the plumbing sector turned out to be a pivotal moment for the company. Currently, the George T. Sanders Company is acknowledged as one of Colorado's top plumbing supply distributors.

In 1965, land was acquired across the street at 1370 Harlan Street. A metal warehouse with a small office was built on this site in 1966. New product lines were consistently added, and the workforce expanded.
